In 1912, L. C. Stevens was manager of the Crescent Theatre. His letter to the IMP film company, dated February 8, 1912, was printed in the March 2 issue of the company’s magazine, The Implet.

Re the Milton Borg in the photo I uploaded: according to one source, he was the manager between 1913 and 1917

The information that I came upon in the Movie Theaters of Holdrege indicated that the theater opened by Mr. Hilsabeck in July 1908 was called the Sterling and was located at 315 East Avenue. I found no indication that the name was changed to Crescent. I am establishing the Sterling on CT.
